“…In recent decades, and particularly since the COVID-19 pandemic, digital technological advances have profoundly impacted communication. Today, computer-mediated interactions often replace traditional face-to-face modes with various forms of video-mediated online communication (Atkinson 2017;Bobkina et al 2023Domínguez Romero and Bobkina 2021;Paradisi et al 2021). Online digital platforms are widely used for meetings in different environments, and these new forms of communication are changing the rules of traditional communication (Paradisi et al 2021).…”

The emergence of political polarization in Europe has intensified divisions among citizens regarding immigration, inequality, and racism. The present paper investigates the use of ver-based (“see”-based) evidentiality in positioning and repositioning strategies by conservative Spanish readers of the digital newspapers ABC and La Razón. The study focuses on their responses to two different controversial measures involving immigrants and refugees taken in by the Spanish government. Such measures relate to the Aquarius (2018) and the Open Arms (2019) incidents. The analysis will be corpus, content-based, and grounded in positioning theory and theories of visual evidential perception. The ultimate aim is to explore the instances of ver-based evidentiality introducing positioning and repositioning strategies that are present in the corpus. Subsequently, we will classify and analyze the viewpoints expressed by conservative readers through these ver-based evidential markers.

“…As a complement, in today's digital world, information technologies play a crucial role in education, with innovative environments and digital experiences to increase motivation, improve learning, and enable more students to achieve learning through emotional intelligence and psychological well-being. From a technology perspective, there are recurrent tools mentioned by experts that support the learning [10], gamification alongside serious games [11], visual programming languages [12], cybersecurity [13], virtual laboratories [14], and digital environments [15], among others.…”

In the last decade, great strides have been made to increase access to education and enrollment rates at all levels (primary, secondary, and higher education). Actions such as promoting equal access to education, preventing school dropout, and establishing free education, among other actions proposed by organizations such as UNESCO, seek to guarantee the universality of education. This is undoubtedly a great challenge, and to address it, it is necessary to characterize how students face the learning process, considering factors such as autonomy, competencies, and their own basic psychological needs, looking for effective learning models based on students’ needs in a changing world, where ICTs play a relevant role. This research analyzes learning models, motivation, self-determination, and technologies used for learning achievement in higher engineering education. The study will highlight relevant initiatives and the most commonly used technological tools. It will also identify learning models that seek to link emotional intelligence, self-determination, cognitive skills, and ICT. The PRISMA protocol guided the study, finding 132 relevant articles to be analyzed and proposing best practices in using learning models, strategies, and ICT to foster students’ intrinsic motivation.

Background This rapidly evolving world, sports dynamics and athletes' cognitive attributes have become subjects of heightened interest. Emerging technologies have also contributed greatly to different fields, particularly physical education. Purpose This study delves into the intriguing correlation between cognitive control and relational aggression among adult sportsmen, shedding light on the pivotal role of emerging learning technologies in this context. Methodology : A mixed-methods research design was employed. A diverse sample of adult athletes from various sports disciplines was purposively selected to ensure gender, age, and skill level representation. Quantitative data were collected through standardized psychometric assessments measuring cognitive control and self-reported relational aggression. Qualitative insights were gathered through semi-structured interviews with a subset of participants. Statistical analyses, including correlation tests and regression analyses, were applied to examine the relationships between cognitive control and relational aggression. Qualitative data from interviews underwent thematic analysis to identify recurring patterns and themes related to the influence of innovative learning technologies on cognitive control and aggression management in sports. Findings: Quantitative findings revealed a negative correlation between the sportsmen cognitive control and relational aggression, but the correlation between proactive and reactive relational aggression was significantly positive. Qualitative data revealed 5 main themes each consisting of 5 sub-themes. Conclusions A significant negative correlation between sportsmen's cognitive control and relational aggression underscores the importance of cognitive control in mitigating relational aggression among athletes, highlighting its potential as a valuable target for intervention and training programs aimed at promoting healthier social dynamics within sporting communities. Intriguingly, the positive correlation between proactive and reactive relational aggression suggests that these two forms of relational aggression are not mutually exclusive but may, in fact, co-occur within the context of sports. Implications: These findings collectively contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the cognitive and social dynamics at play among adult sportsmen. They offer valuable insights into the development of tailored interventions and training strategies, which may not only enhance cognitive control but also address the complex nature of relational aggression in sports settings. Ultimately, such interventions have the potential to foster healthier and more harmonious sporting communities.
